i know what you mean with the interface , i did quite like the window
3.1 desktop it felt familar cos i had an atari GEM machine at home and
the look and feel was very much a gem clone i thought.
Windows NT 3.51 was such a big improvement over trying to get windows
3.1 too work on a network and getting it too see shared printers on
the novel network etc etc

Also it was quantum leap for programming in compared toodoing DOS
command line compiling. I even got the debugger too step through code
as autocad was running in the background , made bug fixing loads
easier.
